It's me, your weekly #emacs rambling birb.
Today I am going to rant about tree-sitter and emacs and consult and vertico and why the hell is my `consult-buffer` taking SIX seconds to go to the next file.
So good news, if emacs is sluggish, you can `M-x profiler-start`, reproduce the problem, and `M-x profiler-report` to see where it's taking its sweet time. My problem is that the sweet time is in `treesit-auto--set-major-remap`.
https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/how-to-get-started-tree-sitter highlights one solution: you can manually remap every major mode to a TS-compatible mode.
I'm pretty sure that the culprit is somewhere in https://github.com/renzmann/treesit-auto, but the workaround from https://github.com/renzmann/treesit-auto/issues/84 doesn't seem to fix the problem for me.
Oh well.
I find it peculiar that I very much switched non-programming editing to emacs by now (org, md, yaml, all that stuff), but I still use nvim for code because nvim is just *fast*. It's like everything in it is just more efficient whereas emacs is fancy but takes its time (I'd say that my barebones emacs setup is on par with VSCode in slowness). With vim, I don't think if I need to do anything to open some extra random file type, it will most probably just work, and the only thing that gave me a headache recently was pkl support.

@farcaller I was right to not use treesit-auto at all

Liberating AirPods with Bluetooth Spoofing
Apple’s AirPods can pair with their competitors’ devices and work as basic Bluetooth earbuds, but to no one’s surprise most of their really interesting features are reserved for Apple devices. What is surprising, though, is that simple Bluetooth device ID spoofing unlocks these features, a fact which [Kavish Devar] took advantage of to write LibrePods, an AirPods controller app for Android and Linux.
In particular, LibrePods lets you control noise reduction modes, use ear detection to pause and unpause audio, detect head gestures, reduce volume when the AirPods detect you’re speaking, work as configurable hearing aids, connect to two devices simultaneously, and configure a few other settings. The app needs an audiogram to let them work as hearing aids, and you’ll need an existing audiogram – creating an audiogram requires too much precision. Of particular interest to hackers, the app has a debug mode to send raw Bluetooth packets to the AirPods. Unfortunately, a bug in the Android Bluetooth stack means that LibrePods requires root on most devices.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a hack enable hearing aid functionality without official Apple approval. However, while we have some people alter the hardware, AirPorts can’t really be called hacker- or repair-friendly.
Thanks to [spiralbrain] for the tip!

@Sheril I wonder at what time the Theia collision happens...? Probably those first few hours?
